- 1 ¼ cups Half & Half
- 1 tablespoon corn syrup optional for shine

- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pudding mix and milk. Beat with an electric mixer, on medium-high, until thick and smooth. Then use a spatula to fold in the Cool Whip.
- Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the graham crackers. Then lay a second layer of graham crackers over the top.
- In a clean mixing microwave-safe mixing bowl, combine the chocolate chips, cups half & half, and corn syrup. Microwave for 1 minute. Then stir to melt the chocolate chips. If needed, microwave another 30-60 seconds. Stir until smooth.
- Pour the chocolate ganache topping over the graham crackers. Smooth into an even layer. Then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Cut and serve.
